FAQ

No FTP account found

cPanel

1. Possibly you have a pretty old version of plugin installed on cPanel server. It does not include functionality of automatic adding FTP accounts if needed for publication. Re-install plugin following installation instruction in your license (you need to uninstall and install it again). This should fix the problem.

2. Problem occurs when site builder cannot create FTP account when opening builder from cPanel. To fix this problem you need to ensure that you have not exceeded limit of FTP accounts in your cPanel account. Delete unused FTP accounts. There may be old FTP accounts left which were created by builder and not used anymore (they are of type "a1b2c3d4@yoursite.com"). As soon as you have space for at least one FTP account the website publication should work.

3. Make sure that "FTP Manager" is enabled on WHM system for your customers. Without it publication may not always work.

When Site.pro builder plugin icon is not visible in cPanels "paper_lantern" theme (even after user set icon in his builder license and updated plugin)

cPanel

cPanel installation uses custom style for "paper_lantern" theme (this can be verified by lookin to folder /var/cpanel/customizations/styled/ what will contain folders with style name). To solve this issue call this command: "/usr/local/cpanel/bin/sprite_generator --theme paper_lantern --style [style_name] --verbose" as root in server cPanel is installed ("[style_name]" in this command needs to be replaced with a name of a style folder you want to fix).

FTP login incorrect

Method 1(if error appears when opening builder from WHMCS or WHM being logged in as admin): Take the following steps to fix this problem:
1. Login to cPanel server per SSH;
2. Delete file /home/[user]/.spbldr_localStorage (this file is created by builder plugin);Note: If you want to delete this file though cPanel file manager initially you may not see files starting with "." by default.

3. Delete FTP accounts of type "a1b2c3d4@domain.com" (they were created by builder plugin);
4. Open builder from WHMCS (or WHM) again and publish website to check if this solved the problem.

3. Change customer's password (you can set the same password as it was earlier);
4. Open builder from customer's cPanel account again and publish website to check if this solved the problem.

Error: Response Code (404)

cPanel

This error can occur due to one of the following reasons:
1. Apache "mod_rewrite" module is not ON. To fix this issue make sure that Apache module mod_rewrite is turned on in builder virtual host. If you use nginx server for builder then make sure that all required rewrite rules are set in nginx configuration for builder.
2. Wrong builder plugin is installed. If you have multiple Site.pro licenses using different builder domains then possibly you installed plugin from license where builder domain differs from the one which you installed builder plugin for. You need to re-install plugin on cPanel using plugin installation guide link from a correct license.
3. Builder domain has changed. If you changed builder domain when builder plugin was already installed on cPanel then this error can occur. Re-install builder plugin to fix this problem so that cPanel gets new builder domain from Site.pro license.
4. Builder domain is locally resolved to incorrect IP. Possibly you have custom record specified in file "/etc/hosts" which points builder domain to a different IP. As a result builder plugin API call fails. Make sure that builder domain on your cPanel server is resolved to a correct IP address.
